I've suggested this was my problem a few times on the forum. I theorised that if brain chemistry was important, then maybe it was only because my brain chemistry had started to shift towards waking...

As to the question of whether it is cheating on your significant other, a simple test would be, are you prepared to tell them about it? If your relationship is such that either it would be allowed...

That's a good point. In the privacy of an LD each person will have different levels of what they consider to be acceptable behaviour. Each individual can justify any actions with that argument. Then...

So, people sin. That still doesn't make lucid dreaming itself sinful. (I'm just trying to make a case for the OP here). Since I'm not particularly religious, I'd rather de-couple this from using...

Hey Dro, I hope you don't mind this little aside - don't want to hijack your thread! Thanks Sageous, you could be right in that the toys might be lying, or at least influencing what they are...

I've had the same problem with WBTBs. I can't really offer any help. I tend to either lay awake for ages or fall asleep - no in-between! The only thing I can suggest is to try and vary the timing of...

I'm running in a long distance race with a few others. It is very vivid but not lucid. We go round a corner and then have to climb a steep incline. At the top we get bogged down in mud, and have to jump across a small gap, but there's a weird sort of matting under foot. I stop and opposite me is a guy who is obviously the instructor on the course. He stares at me and after quite a long while says, "don't I know you?", although I'm not sure I actually hear the words. He is in his thirties with a neatly trimmed but full beard and moustache, with neat hair and a young looking face. I move on and slide down a steep slope to the ground the other side, realising that he is a group captain, and I have a strong wish that I was a group captain as well.
On the ground I start walking along a path with a concrete wall on my left, and I suddenly become aware that I'm dreaming. I put my hand up to the wall and look closely at it, trying to stabilise by inspecting it. The wall has a coarse granular appearance with sparkling particles in it, but I can't seem to focus properly on it. I move on a bit and try again, but the same thing happens. There seems to be a weird fuzziness to the surface.
I get frustrated with that and decided that I need to change the scene, so the wall disappears and I move over to where there is a small tree and I put my arms out around it. Then I get the urge to fly up and I levitate straight up and above the tree. I move up quite slowly at first, but then as I glance around I can see some houses, but it's a bit vague.
Then almost as suddenly I'm back on the ground, but at the edge of a cliff, way above a bay with the sea below. Without any fear I decide to dive into the bay below and I jump up and dive down. At first I accelerate quite fast but then as I go down my speed slows a bit to a steady pace. Down below I can see a sort of long cloud that at first looked to be on the water, but the water is way below and this cloud is above. As I approach it the cloud comes up to me, and then it becomes a woman in a long white flowing dress. She flies up to meet me, and I pull up into the air with her as we come close together.
(All this was lucid).
